    Griots Garage Floor

    Yep, I used it several years ago before I saw the light. OK paint for what it is, but water based only lasts so long and I got a few years out of it, before it was starting to show through. FWIW I do use some of Griots items, but remember he mostly just re-packages other peoples stuff and...

    Grooves

    He is talking about expansion joints. These joints provide a stress relief for the concrete and the hope is that any cracks will develop in those cuts. What you are talking about is saw cuts to channel water, usually because the cement was poured, poorly resulting low places for water to...

    Another Wolverine Floor

    600 sq. ft and you are going to do it in sections? Why? If you have a helper, they can cut in the corners while you do the main section. Sections to me, means stopping in between and I don't think that is a good idea. Go for it, and if you can get two other people to help, then one can mix...

    Home Depot Commercial Fans Installed

    Well for my Bday, my family surprised me with a new set of Makita drills (the small ratchet one is great) and two of those 60" industrial fans that HD sells. I wired them into the garage door openers, since that was my only constant power in the ceiling. I of course used the supplied reostat...

    Here's My Wolverine Floor

    Awesome. I've been away on a forced vacation, and look what's happened while I've been gone. I agree with the heavy flake thoughts. If I had to do it over again ,I would go real heavy on none at all. Again, that's a excellent job.

    Well, $@#@!%$%#%@!!!!

    Well I was 100% until you asked, now I am not so sure. I guess that's why no one ever asks me to be a witness, because I can't remember jack.

    Well, $@#@!%$%#%@!!!!

    FWIW I was at Costco today and they had a sample put up on a piece of plywood. It was really rough. Is there a top coat that goes with it or is that it, because if that's it, then the floor will be tough to clean. BTW it really is a battleship grey.

    HOT CA weather delaying my install GRRR

    You could always stick the mix in a cooler with some ice overnight. Better cool than too hot. Good luck and yeah check with Sherwin Williams, That's where I got my 18" roller from.

    Wolverine Epoxy Durability?

    FWIW I've had my Wolverine floor down for 8 months. I have used jack stands, but with a towel underneath, and I've used a rolling floor jack with nothing under the wheels, and I've left wieght on it overnight too with no damage. The only damage I have was a few weeks ago when the new puppy...

    Question re: acid wash

    I am curious about your agenda. Is it for enviromental reasons or for the best metheod available or for safety? Also you mentioned the moisture of the slab after etching. For water based epoxies that is not a problem as they are not moisture sensitive nor is the Wolverine primer. As it is, I...

    Prep Checklist..

    The "dry time" is not cast in stone. If you are using a water based epoxy then you actually want some dampness. Even some non-water based epoxies don't require total absence of moisture. I am pretty sure with my Wolverine floor, that Eric said I didn't have to be completely dry, but no matter...

    Question re: acid wash

    Mike use the search button for all of the questions that you asked. There is a wealth of information about dilution ratio's, runoff etc. Not only that, you do need to pick a manufacturer because they will specify what you need to do for prep, and if you have a problem with the application it...

    500 Sq Ft Wolverine Floor

    Looks great. Smart color choice too. The only advice at this point that I can give you is to not put down any rugs or mats for awhile. Even with your color you will get some UV reaction with the Bondtite. Not much mind you, because of your color, but you will get some. So far the UV...

    My Wolverine floor

    When I did my floor, I felt that the mixers were cheap enough to just by two of them and then through them away. The first mixer was for the bondtite and the second for the color coat. By the time i was ready to put the clearcoat on, the material was already hard from the primer coat so it...

    how many btu's do i need

    What about a heat pump? Heat and cool in one unit and there is really not too much ductwork needed. Since it is a garage you can get away with the "exposed" look for the ductwork.

    Car Elevators. Who Make Them?

    Hey folks I saw awhile back a garage that has a elevator for the lower level. Where would one get something like this, and more important, the price? Thanks.
